The drivers typically wear heavy coats, no matter the temperature. Some people use them to commute to or from work. I also see them used a lot during lunch time. But most of the time the drivers just wait. Here are some lunchtime photos.
Including the driver, it's not unusual to see 3 on a bike. I've seen 4 a number of times. I'm sure there's been 5, probably including children. Based on my observations and intuition, the further outside of town you get, the more likely to see 4 on a bike.
A boda boda ride is more expensive than a matatu but less than a regular taxi. Which, by the way, probably doesn't have a taxi sign on it, but is likely to just be some guy with a car that decides it's a taxi. I've certainly never seen a meter in one.
